Counter.

Shi Lang passed the command and then he moved ahead with Ryan. The attack on the western side was possibly a chance that the other party exploited when the Terrans were busy dealing with the sudden raid. The young general did not dare to think lowly of the incoming party and thus ordered everyone to defend and attack. 

He personally took Ryan with him to move around the parameter, through the northern side, and then intercept the enemy from a flanking position. The other party must have known about them, so Shi Lang said, "Everyone, initiate your illusion arrays. This attack does not seem to be easy, do not expose yourselves until it is necessary." 

He was not an alarmist, but this was his cautious behavior that has kept his team safe till now. He was not going to send them to their deaths for the sake of glory and heroism. Even if he must act in a cowardly manner, he would not hesitate.
